The government is expected to vote this morning (Sunday) on the establishment of a state commission of inquiry into the Mount Meron disaster.
In the families of those who perished, there were voices in support of the process, but call on the committee to focus on changing the current situation instead of finding culprits.
Rabbi Avigdor Hayut, who lost his son Yedidya Moshe and his student Moshe Levy in the disaster, told Walla!
Because he welcomes the expected establishment of the committee but "on one condition", as he puts it, "that the committee will deal first and foremost with deficiencies in the field".
He said, "I looked at the proposal document that will be brought to the government and I did not see a mention of it. In ten months, thousands of people will come to the merriment in Meron again and I did not see anyone take on this matter. I have no interest in looking for culprits, it "Resurrection. Such a committee should have a goal to correct the deficiencies and if that is what will happen - I welcome that."

The government will convene this morning for its first working meeting, during which it is expected to approve the establishment of a state commission of inquiry into a disaster that occurred 52 days ago, on the day of Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai's celebration, in which 45 people perished.
The position of the previous government, and especially that of the heads of the ultra-Orthodox parties, was against the establishment of this commission of inquiry, but the recommendations for its establishment were included in the coalition agreements of the Bennett-Lapid government under a special clause.
The proposal to establish a commission of inquiry was brought to the approval of the government by the Minister of Defense and the blue-and-white chairman, Bnei Gantz, and the Minister of Finance and the chairman of Yisrael Beiteinu, Avigdor Lieberman.
